How do I duplicate this screen on my Apple Watch that says Speakers&TVs?

I looked down at my watch while on a Zoom call on my ipad and my Apple Watch 7 had a screen that had a heading SPEAKERS&TVS, and showed the two tv's nearest to me. (see pic). I do not know why that was on my watch. Was it related to the Zoom call? I have been on many Zoom calls and never noticed that screen on my watch. I cannot duplicate the screen under Bluetooth or any other settings, and I can't find anything on the internet. Thanks.

Hi queen007,

The menu options on your Apple Watch are usually associated with using your Apple Watch to share audio with Bluetooth-enabled speakers connected to your home's Wi-Fi network.

We recommend that you check out the following link to learn more about how to Connect Apple Watch to Bluetooth headphones or speakers - Apple Support

To perform the recommended troubleshooting steps via the link above, complete the steps in the sections titled "Pair Bluetooth headphones or speakers" and "Choose an audio output."

Pair Bluetooth headphones or speakers

You need Bluetooth headphones or speakers to listen to most audio on your Apple Watch (Siri, phone calls, voicemail, and voice memos play through the speaker on Apple Watch). Follow the instructions that came with the headphones or speakers to put them in discovery mode. When the Bluetooth device is ready, follow these steps:

1. Open the Settings app on your Apple Watch, then tap Bluetooth.

2. Tap the device when it appears.

You can also tap on the play screens of the Audiobooks, Music, Now Playing, and Podcasts apps to open the Bluetooth setting.

Choose an audio output

1. Touch and hold the bottom of the screen, then swipe up to open Control Center.

2. Tap , then choose the device you want to use.

For important information about avoiding hearing loss, see Important safety information for Apple Watch.

We recommend the steps above because they will show you how to connect your Apple Watch to Bluetooth speakers.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have other questions or need additional support.

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.

Cheers!

Hi queen007,

We appreciate you clarifying this for us.

Have you ever used your iPad to AirPlay content to either the TV or streaming stick? If you have, if you turn off AirPlay, does that remove those from your Apple Watch? Here’s how to turn off AirPlay: Use AirPlay to stream video or mirror the screen of your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

We look forward to your reply.

Cheers!

Thank you so much. I use the Bluetooth settings frequently. I followed your advice but am unable to call up that particular SPEAKERS&TVS screen. I have the TVs on (which are on my wi-fi network) but the only device I see on my watch are my airpods. I cannot find a setting that has the header SPEAKERS&TVS. I am unable to duplicate this pictured screen.
